ASSISTANT ATTORNEY DAVIS DECIDES THAT TT CAN

RIGHT TO ENTER THE VILLAGE
question OF considerable importance TO the
Anacostia and Potomac River Railroad Company
ma, arisen from q complaint made to the District
commissioners by MIA Mary Stevenson that the
railroad company proposed to lay an extra track
at the corner OF Harrison and Monroe streets
Anacostla, which would inJure her property. The
SUBJECT was referred TO Assistant District Attor-
ney Davis for an opinion upon the question
whether or not the company has the right under
Mr.. Davis opinion Is very comprehensive and In
favor OF Mrs. Stephensons side OF the case. He
says that by section 673 X. S. ID. c., IL was pro-
v1ded that no railroad shall be built until It's route
and terminus shall have been approved and sane.
toned by Congress. In section OF the act or 1875
Congress specifically prescrb d the route OF this
road through Washington, and fixed its eastern
terminus at or near the northern end OF the navy
yard bridge on 11th street east. Section or this
bridge to Uniontown, which thus became the east
ern terminus, and also gave the company the right
20 extend the road by the Good Hope road TO
the District line. When the new bridge was built
the company constructed two tracks across IL
'w1thout waiting for Congress to provide any re-
strlctlons or regulations, but ON March 3, 1879.
Congress ordered one OF the tracks to be removed
at once Mr.. Davis concludes from these facts
that "he company cannot run its road through
UniOntown by any route IL may choose, but II
must get the approval and sanction OF Congress
for any proposed route. The road ac-
cording TO the act OF 1875 and the general law can
go only TO Uniontown; II cannot even enter IL,
much less can the company appropriate the
streets or that town at its own will.
